I realized I’d been doing one of these since I was 17

There are so many dang articles about how to live gloriously in your 30s. Even more, detailing how we humans should approach our 40s. Or how to take charge of life when you turn the big 5–0.

But I have a newsflash for y’all.

We’re living longer and longer these days.

But I digress…

If you didn’t know, and there’s no reason you would know, I’m in my 50's.

I know, I know…hard to believe, right?

Heck, if one were to peep my profile pic, then maybe, like my wife, you’d say, “Ricky-boy, you don’t look a day over 46”. But look, besides being sarcastic and pithy, I frankly don’t feel a day over 40. At least that’s what my mind says.

But the even more significant point here is that we live longer and enjoy life well into our 70s and beyond.

And when I say enjoying life, I mean like really enjoying it. Seizing it by the balls and living it for all it’s worth. Nowadays, more and more people in their 50s are thinking about how to live in their 70s.

Perhaps you’re one of them.

Perhaps you’re parents are.
